[@bonsai108]

I love how Cyborg said she did everything she needed to do to prepare for the fight. This is one of the greatest brawls. Cyborg continued forward while Nunes swung for the fences striking with leopard paw knuckles stepping back or trying to maintain her space. The Lioness proved when you corner a cat it turns. Nunes practices one of the hardest Convict Conditioning exercises, horizontal pull ups with weights which defies the Convict Condition system. The funny thing about the Pull Up chapter name is "Barn Door Back and Major Guns". Nunes has a Liddell solid shoulder rack. She strikes with the lower padded leopard's paw knuckles throwing haymakers which if blocked, opens you up to devastating abdomen kicks or strikes. Anyways, I'm getting buzzed and that's all the beans I'm going to spill.

Very respectable attitude when she comes back look out!

From a technical pint of view, she has to learn how to block a right hand. Every haymaker Nunes threw landed right on the button.
